International Poker Rules: Release online and on mobile of the version 2013

The International Poker Federation, known under the name of FIDPA, has just announced the launch of its website and a new free mobile application, each containing the International Poker Rules 2013 (IP). Players and all of those who frequent from far or closely, the world of poker, can then download these rules in pdf format, on the site of the FIDPA. As a reminder, the FIDPA has been created by Marcel Luske and Michelle Lau, two major figures of the universe of poker. The association has for mission to standardize the rules of poker applied during major international poker tournament. The IP 2013 represents more or less this standard shape and has 81 technical procedures and politics, as well as a group of basic rules easy to understand, addressed to all players.

The IP 2012 lists 54 rules, set by the association of tournaments directors or TDA, which gathers more than 2,000 professionals of poker. Neil Johnson, Jack Effel and Tab Duchateau are part of it. Let us note that Marcel Luske benefited from the support of renowned players such as Antonio Esfandiari and Phil Ivey in this project; an act that he appreciated so much because Luke is convinced that the existence of this uniform tournament rule can bring a better future and is more credible in the industry of poker in general, as well as for players. The latter will have a more precise idea on the behaviors to adopt on a gaming table. The FIDPA will not settle with the efforts already provided, it thinks to implement a collaboration with other entities such as the owners of the World Series Of Poker.
